The Condensed Mode Setup Dialog

Top  Previous  Next

This dialog sets up the parameters for the Condensed mode of the Source window.

The Display Lines of Text area has radio buttons for switching between two alternative criteria for condensing text in the Source window: Containing String and Where First Non-blank Column Is:

1. If you check the Containing String radio button the Source window will display only the lines with text that match the sub-string specified in the text box at the right. Additionally, you can specify that the case should be matched the case, that whole words only should be used, and that the sub-string is a regular expression.

2. If you check the Where First Non-blank Column Is radio button, the Source window will display the lines where text begins from the position specified in the Column box. Then you should select one of four options by checking an appropriate radio button:

Equal to - the first non-space character should be exactly in the specified column. For example, if you specify position number 2, the window will display only the lines whose text begins in column 2.

Not Equal to - the first non-space character should be in any column except the position specified here. For example, if you specify position number 2, the window will not display all the lines beginning in this column. All other lines will be displayed.

Less than - display only the lines in which text begins at a position less than the specified one.

Greater than - display only the lines in which text begins at a position greater than the specified one.

When you have completed setup click OK to switch the Source window to the Condensed mode.
